Question: Thinking determines the result, and choice determines the destiny.
A person can only have one life and one travel experience. Fortunately, one film has one life. Through watching movies, one can experience the life of others and learn valuable lessons from it.
"The Adventures of Poseidon" is an old film released in 1972. The film describes how the luxury cruise ship Poseidon was affected by the huge waves caused by the submarine earthquake, the entire hull overturned, and the temporarily surviving passengers tried their best to escape.
On New Year’s Eve, the people on the luxury cruise ship sang and danced to their heart’s content in the joy of music, welcoming the new year, but the doom of the shipwreck has come quietly, and those who are intoxicated by joy do not know that the tragic fate will be imminent. To start.
A huge wave tens of meters high came oncoming, and the cruise ship had no power to parry. It overturned in the joy of music. Most people fell to the bottom of the sea amidst desperate screams. The scene was terrifying and thrilling. Although the film cannot restore one or two of the tragic scenes at that time, through the screen, one can also feel the kind of helplessness, panic, and despair in the face of disaster.
Choice determines destiny
In the face of disasters, people usually have different choices, different choices, and different destinies. People who have temporarily survived face the choice of how to escape.
Inspired by a clever boy, the pastor believed that the current situation of the ship should be that the bow of the ship was immersed in the sea, and it should climb up to the stern before considering how to get out. This view of him was recognized by several people, so the group of people prepared to climb up through a Christmas tree.
The group headed by the pastor surpassed numerous obstacles, went through all kinds of hardships, and finally climbed to the top at the last juncture when the sea was pressing. Finally, with the help of rescuers, they finally saw the light of day and became one of the few survivors of the disaster.
Unlike the pastor and his group, the group of people on the deck believed the chief of the cruise ship and stayed where they were waiting for rescue as much as possible. These people completely ignored the pastor's persuasion and chose not to leave. In desperation, the pastor could only leave.
Unexpectedly, the sea roared in a moment, and these talents awoke and madly rushed to the Christmas tree used to escape. A group of people scrambled to climb up, just like grabbing the last straw. The Christmas tree couldn’t help it. Everyone's climbing crashed down, and those who chose to wait for rescue were buried on the bottom of the sea.
If the hull capsized and a large number of people falling to the bottom of the sea is horrible, then the scene of a large group of people walking to the bow of the ship with a doctor is even more shocking. It is this scene that I remember clearly after many years of watching the movie.
The pastor led a group of people to climb up continuously. At a certain level, they encountered a large group of people. They hurriedly walked to the bow of the ship with a doctor. The pastor blocked them and told them that they might be walking in the wrong direction. He couldn't bear to stop, even if he stopped for a few minutes to ask about the situation, he walked numbly and hurriedly on the road to death.
Sometimes, compared to a healthy body, a person's ability to think independently and judgment in times of crisis are more important.
Clear the fog
Most people have a herd mentality and dare not to be innovative, because most people are taught to be good obedient children since they were young, and over time they lose the ability to think independently. From daily trivial matters to major incidents, I will agree with and nod to the things that I don't understand or know very little.
"I can abide by the law and discipline on some small matters, but how to think and judge on big issues, you have to choose for yourself. You cannot let any one person or any society make decisions for you. Evasion is not the solution to the problem. Method, you should work hard to build your own culture."-"Meet on Tuesday"
Life is like an adventure. You don't know what will happen next moment. Therefore, people should learn to establish their own independent thinking system and look at and solve problems from their own perspective.
After experiencing a disaster, many things are destined to change, including a person’s values and behavior. People often re-examine whether their thinking is correct, whether the things they once believed and cared about are really so important, and people live. What is the meaning and how to live is to be clear and worthy of this life.
With your own thinking, you will have a clear judgment in this noisy world, in front of the overwhelming information of true and false, so that you can always maintain an inner peace and sobriety, a calmness and calmness. , Can make relatively accurate judgments in the face of danger, and do not panic or follow blindly.
It is not terrible to not understand. The terrible thing is not to pretend to understand and follow the trend. This will not only bring huge losses to oneself, but also cause harm to others. When a problem occurs, activate your own independent thinking system and choose what to believe and what to do.
Calmness in a difficult situation is often better than complacency in success. The more you are in a difficult situation, the more you can see a person's ability to judge and solve problems, and to test the correctness of the thinking system.
In every age, there will be wise men of every age. They will see the essence of the problem through the surface of things, and they will alert the world in their unique way, but most people in the world are blinded by the prosperity of the world, and they disdain it. .
There is never a shortage of clear-headed and quick-thinking people in the world. They will also make a different voice from everyone. Of course, most of the time they are puzzled by everyone, but they are regarded as alternative.

"The difference between a mortal and a saint lies in a piece of paper. When a mortal is reincarnated, he carries the masked paper from the previous life and death. Only the saint removes the paper; the mortal can never see what is in front of him, but the saint looks at the different things in the world. Watching the fire; mortals can only see clearly after the saint removes the masking paper and taps, and then becomes completely unified and black."-"White Deer Plain"
As a mortal groping forward in the dark, if you want to avoid detours and save yourself, you must find a way to establish a way of thinking.
Generally speaking, reading is one of the ways. "Reading history makes people wise, and reading poetry makes people smart...Everyone who has learned something will become a character." The changes in the years of history have amazing similarities and repetitions. Read more books, the angle and height of looking at world affairs will change.
After reading a certain book and having a certain experience, then you have a certain ability to think and discriminate. Through thinking and discrimination, you will always find a Weibo or public account that suits your thinking and can lead you to think. , Then pay attention to them, you will get the knowledge and information you want from them, thereby enriching your knowledge system.
After possessing a certain amount of thinking ability, he will look at some issues objectively, and will not inexplicably reject or slander some things that he does not understand. Before objecting, he will at least try to understand, "No investigation "There is no right to speak" is indeed a truth.
Watching science fiction films or books may be a way to break the rigid thinking. Disaster films make people calm and sober, and science fiction films make people suddenly enlightened.
Many situations described in science fiction novels have become facts. The father of science fiction Verne published sister works "From the Moon to the Earth" and "Round the Moon" in 1865 and 1870 successively. In 1969, human beings used manned spacecraft to bring three names. Astronaut sent to the moon, the two are very similar, and people didn't believe it at the time, they just read it as science fiction.
Science fiction films such as "Interstellar" and "Time and Space Contact" make people understand another time and space. You can choose to doubt or believe it, but you can't categorically deny its existence, because you still don't understand it. There are also many films about aliens. Similarly, people cannot subjectively deny its existence and ridicule those who believe.
Although many things have not happened now, it does not mean that they will not happen in the future; many things have not been acknowledged now, which does not mean that they do not exist.
When thinking is no longer rigid, you can accept some new things and no longer reject them. According to the law of attraction of the universe, the universe will reflect all kinds of real information to you, and you can easily receive it, thus changing your The road of life.
A person's life is also a journey and an adventure, and its thrilling degree is no different from "The Adventures of Poseidon". Life is always in the middle of a choice. It depends on your choice where you should go.
